At CyberShield Defense, we understand that protecting sensitive information whether its patient medical data (PHI) or confidential client records is the cornerstone of trust.
Our Cybersecurity Testing & Compliance Services are designed to uncover vulnerabilities, validate controls, and ensure your systems meet every technical and legal security requirement outlined by HIPAA, HHS, NIST, and ABA cybersecurity guidelines.
Each of the following nine tests is tailored to the specific needs of healthcare organizations, law firms, and software vendors managing sensitive data.
Vulnerability Assessment & Penetration Testing (VAPT)
Purpose: To find and fix weaknesses before cybercriminals do.
This test combines automated scanning with ethical hacking to identify exploitable flaws in your systems, applications, or networks.
For healthcare, VAPT helps safeguard EMR/EHR platforms, patient portals, and cloud databases containing PHI. For law firms, it protects document management systems, CRMs, and client communication portals.
Why You Need It: A single unpatched vulnerability can open your organization to ransomware or data theft. This test closes those doors before attackers find them.
Network Security Assessment
Purpose: To ensure your network infrastructure can’t be used as a backdoor for unauthorized access. We assess your firewalls, routers, switches, and internal segments to detect configuration errors, weak credentials, or open ports.
Healthcare networks, often shared between clinical and administrative devices, are common breach targets. Law firms with remote offices and VPN users face similar risks.
Why You Need It: This test verifies that only the right people and systems can access your network, helping prevent internal and external attacks.
Application Security Testing
Purpose: To ensure the applications that run your operations are built and maintained securely. Our team tests your web portals, APIs, and mobile apps for vulnerabilities like SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and weak authentication.
In healthcare, this protects patient intake systems and EMR modules. In law, it secures case management and client portals that handle confidential evidence.
Why You Need It: Applications are often the primary target for hackers. This test ensures your systems comply with HIPAA, NIST 800-64, and OWASP Top 10 standards.
Data Encryption & Protection Audit
Purpose: To confirm that your sensitive data is encrypted everywhere it exists — in databases, backups, and communications.
We validate encryption methods, key management, and access restrictions to ensure full data lifecycle protection.
For healthcare, that means PHI remains unreadable even if stolen. For law firms, it guarantees that client records or case evidence remain confidential.
Why You Need It: Encryption is both a HIPAA requirement and your final defense against data exposure in a breach.
API & Third-Party Integration Security
Purpose: To secure data exchange between systems and external vendors. We test the APIs that connect your EMR, billing platforms, lab software, or CRM systems for vulnerabilities, weak authentication, and data leaks.
Healthcare systems rely heavily on integrations (e.g., hospital ↔ billing ↔ clearinghouse). Law firms often integrate client systems with document or payment tools.
Why You Need It: Most breaches occur through insecure third-party connections this test ensures your partners don’t become your weakest link.
Social Engineering & Phishing Simulation
Purpose: To measure and improve your team’s real-world readiness against human-targeted attacks. We simulate phishing emails, fraudulent calls, and impersonation attempts to identify how staff respond. Then we provide training to improve awareness and reporting.
Healthcare employees often face phishing targeting patient data. Legal teams are vulnerable to impersonation and document-sharing scams.
Why You Need It: Technology can’t fix human error only education and simulation can. This test reduces the most common cause of breaches.
Risk Assessment & Compliance Gap Analysis
Purpose: To identify gaps in your policies, processes, and systems against major cybersecurity frameworks. We perform a detailed risk analysis, map your current controls to HIPAA, HITECH, and NIST CSF, and create a step-by-step remediation plan.
Healthcare organizations can use this for annual HIPAA audits; law firms can use it to meet ABA cybersecurity due diligence standards.
Why You Need It: Regulators expect documented risk management this test ensures your compliance program stands up to inspection.
Cloud Security Review
Purpose: To protect sensitive data stored or shared in cloud environments. We evaluate your cloud configurations (AWS, Azure, or GCP) for misconfigurations, improper access permissions, and insecure storage setups.
For healthcare, this protects PHI stored in telehealth or EMR hosting environments. For law firms, it ensures document storage and client data in the cloud remains private.
Why You Need It: Cloud misconfigurations are now one of the top causes of data breaches this test prevents accidental exposure.
Incident Response & Breach Readiness Testing
Purpose: To ensure your organization is ready to respond effectively to a cyber incident. We test your ability to detect, contain, and recover from security events from ransomware attacks to data leaks.
Healthcare organizations must comply with HIPAA Breach Notification Rules. Law firms must protect client confidentiality even under attack.
Why You Need It: A well-tested response plan minimizes downtime, legal exposure, and financial loss when an incident occurs.
Beyond Testing and Ensuring Compliance
All CyberShield Defense assessments align with the leading cybersecurity and compliance standards:
  • HIPAA (Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act).
  • HITECH (Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health Act).
  • NIST Cybersecurity Framework
  • HHS Cybersecurity Performance Goals (CPGs).
  • ABA Cybersecurity Guidelines for Law Firms.
Choose the Right Test for Your Organization
  • Healthcare Providers: Start with VAPT, Data Encryption Audit, and Risk Assessment.
  • Medical Billing & EMR Vendors: Focus on API Testing, Cloud Security, and Application Security.
  • Law Firms Handling PHI or Client Data: Begin with VAPT, Social Engineering Simulation, and Compliance Gap Analysis.
Each test strengthens a different layer of defense together, they form a complete security posture for modern healthcare and legal enterprises.
Our experts are certified in CEH (Certified Ethical Hacker), CISSP (Certified Information Systems Security Professional), and OSCP (Offensive Security Certified Professional) ensure that each test provides actionable insights, compliance documentation, and long-term protection strategies.
